Each year drugs and alcohol cost British business 17 million working days and more than £6 billion in lost productivity and addiction (drug and alcohol misuse) affects 20% of the adult population in the UK:

  • One quarter of all drug users and three quarters of all alcoholics are in work
  • One in four workplace accidents are drug or alcohol related

Against the current background of rising stress levels, risk of unemployment, static pay levels, and changing work-life balance, Company Directors, HR managers and Health & Safety officers would do well to be aware of its presence and effect on their business.  Figures suggest that even the smallest companies will have employees with an addiction issue.
